Yibu sighed and said, "Oh, it's like this: There are indeed only nine floors for people to live in the underground world, but further down the ninth floor, it is a lava land, which is so hot that even the late-stage masters of Nascent Soul feel a little uncomfortable. However, the energy here is the most intense, and it is quite good for practice. Of course, not everyone can enter that place. Only those who have reached the mid-stage Nascent Soul strength will not be killed by heat."

"And, if there are more people entering, its energy will drop significantly. Therefore, the underground world stipulates that the elders of the Elders' House will only have one month to enter and practice within ten years, which is considered a reward for the elders. This time is controlled by the elders themselves when they will enter. Instead of the elders, only geniuses from the three major clans will have the opportunity to enter and practice for a month before the late stage of the Nascent Soul, and they have to queue up!"

Yibu then talked about the fire spirit grass that Jiang Chen was most concerned about: "The fire spirit grass is one of the three treasures of the Dragon Man clan. It is planted on the eighth and ninth floors, but the dragon man clan itself is not enough and will not take it out for others. But on the tenth floor, the fire spirit grass grows completely in a wild form, and anyone can pick it. However, as time goes by, there are fewer and fewer wild fire spirit grass growing inside. But if you go into the tenth floor and spend this month specifically looking for fire spirit grass, without practicing, you may find one or two plants. This is much easier than stealing directly at the Dragon Man herb garden!"

"That means: if I can win this presidential selection and win the dean's seat, I can not only reject the resolution to send troops to the Shenzhou Continent, but also enter the tenth floor to pick the fire spirit grass. Yes?" Jiang Chen asked.

Yibu nodded and said, "Theory is this! But, are you really going to participate in this competition? You must know that the Dragon Man clan and the Lizard Man clan are now in a shattering relationship with our Squid Man clan. They will not show mercy in the competition. What's more, you are still the human that they have always hated! So, I really don't want you to go! You have a strong ability and such a high talent, and you will definitely become a strong man who caused a sensation in the continent in the future..."

"But, you are still too young now. You have just broken through the strength of the early stage of the Nascent Soul and fight with those dragon human geniuses who step into the late stage of the Nascent Soul with half a foot. I am really worried!" Yibu said with a depressed look on his face. He really has some feelings for Jiang Chen now.

"Senior Yibu, thank you for your concern, but my idea is decided. Don't stop it! This competition is very important to me, I have to go! Moreover, I want to see how powerful this so-called Dragon Man master is!" Jiang Chen said with a flash of cold light in his starry eyes.

"Oh! Okay. Since you have decided, I won't advise you more. You can cultivate yourself and consolidate your state in the past few days. I'll help you complete the procedures for participating in the competition!" Yibu sighed and nodded helplessly and said.

"Then thank you!" Jiang Chen bowed deeply to Yibu.

Yibu shook his head and turned around and walked out the door, but Jiang Chen opened the door of the secret room and began to enter the meditation with all his heart. He began to recall his feelings when he advanced, and to see if he could understand something else from it...

Deep in the castle, in the secret room of Yibu, Jiang Chen sat cross-legged quietly with his eyes closed.

"When I advanced to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, the 'Demon Sword Technique' had already realized the seventh level peak. Although it was not enough to emit 256 sword energy at the same time, it could also emit 223 sword energy. The power of the sword technique has more than doubled compared to twenty years ago. If you continue to understand it now, the 'Demon Sword Technique' will make another breakthrough. It's just that three days are too nervous, and I don't know if it can be achieved. The key lies in the 'Man and Swordsman' move! If my soul-devouring sword and the Thunder Flying Sword are integrated into the spiritual power, wherever my spiritual power attacks, the soul-devouring sword will appear, and there will be not many people who can dodge my attack..." Jiang Chen had already made a decision on what he was going to do in the past few days.

The most important thing now is to make your strength breakthroughs within a few days so that you can stand out in the dean's competition.

"How can I integrate my demon sword technique into the spells I usually cast? "The human sword is integrated with one" is easy to say, but it is difficult to integrate it. What "The human sword is integrated with one" I saw in martial arts novels in my previous life seems to say, "Where is the sword is the place where the sword is, how can I achieve "Where is the attack, the sword is the place?" Jiang Chen fell into deep thought.

However, his mood calmed down, forgot himself, and began to realize the mystery of the Demon Sword Technique...

Jiang Chen's mind naturally showed various unique trajectories of the wind blowing. At the same time, the casting process of various sword techniques such as "Demon Sword Technique", "Ghost Shadow Strike", "Soul Devouring Technique", "Ghost Fire Technique" and other ghost magics were also demonstrated in his mind.

Jiang Chen began to study and understand the two major directions of "fast" and "slow" in the swordsmanship realm.

At the same time, the spiritual consciousness and sword energy began to fit together, and countless winds and sword shadows were flying around his mind.

The sword light is like the wind, the wind is like the shadow of the sword. Wherever the wind reaches, the sword is where it is, silent and breathless, invisible and formless…

In this kind of meditation, Jiang Chen's understanding of the wind-based laws was improving step by step at a rapid speed. He realized the realm of these sword techniques and magical mysteries. His soul began to transform, and his spiritual consciousness also made considerable progress.

...

Time passed, and three days passed soon.

On the morning of the fourth day, Jiang Chen, who was sitting cross-legged in the secret room, was surrounded by various green lights on his body.

In the fusion of the demon sword technique and ghost magic in these three days, Jiang Chen's spiritual consciousness and spiritual power have become deeper and deeper...

At this time, Yibu had already rushed to the door of the secret room. Seeing that the door was still closed, he hurriedly asked the two mid-stage guards of Nascent Soul: "When will Jiang Chen come out?"

"Great Elder, how can we know this? You know that it is possible that people who go into seclusion will not come out for several years. Jiang Chen has only been in for three days!" Two mid-stage Nascent Soul followers hurriedly replied.

"Of course I know this. But I have repeatedly told him that the competition is about to happen. Will he abstain from it if he doesn't go? I finally helped him get the qualification to participate in the dean's selection..." Yibu said helplessly.

At this moment, Jiang Chen felt the throbbing of his soul, and in the sea of ​​consciousness, the blue ocean was roaring, and the blue airflow seemed to be changing.

"Finally, the swordsmanship is about to break through." Jiang Chen's heart was filled with surprise at this moment.

It only took him three days to understand the eighth level of the Demon Sword Technique when he began to go into seclusion.

"No wonder Xier said that the understanding of the sword technique realm is very strange. Some people stop at the difficulty of understanding all their lives, while others can quickly understand the profound sword technique realm. Understanding is so wonderful." Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh.

"Boom!"

Jiang Chen felt a throbbing soul.

"It's successful!" He couldn't help but scream in surprise.

Jiang Chen was looking at his soul carefully at this moment. In the sea of ​​consciousness, the blue spiritual power ocean that had turned into liquid actually condensed a scimitar with golden light, and a silver-white halo faintly enveloped the sharp blade.

"How could a scimitar appear in the sea of ​​consciousness?" Jiang Chen was surprised.

"Is 'Man and Sword One' the same to turn my spiritual sense into the shape of a knife?" Jiang Chen was also surprised.

"It's really different to understand the 'man and sword unity'." Jiang Chen easily spread his spiritual sense and found that he could detect the situation dozens of miles away around him. He soon discovered that Yibu was walking anxiously at the door of his secret room.

Jiang Chen opened his eyes at this time.

"It seems that I won't go out again. This old man is going to be anxious!"

Jiang Chen thought of this, smiled slightly, and walked out of the secret room.

When Yibu saw the door of the secret room open, he hurried forward to speak. He felt that Jiang Chen's breath was much stronger than three days ago.

"Have you gained a new insight into the magic?" Yibu asked in surprise and joy.

Jiang Chen nodded with a smile.

"That's great! You'll be more sure you won't die in the game!" Ibrahimovic picked up Jiang Chen and ran to the entrance of the eighth floor.

He also said while running: "I finally got you covered by your identity and qualifications. Even if you are my closed disciple, you are ranked third. I received it while traveling in China. Remember not to let go. This is your identity token!"

After saying that, Yibu gave Jiang Chen a crystal token emitting red light. It was engraved with Jiang Chen's name.

"Well, don't worry, I understand!" Jiang Chen nodded, but he was still a little surprised. He had made a breakthrough again. Yibu just thought that he could only save his life. How powerful are those geniuses of the Dragon Man race?

The ninth floor of the Underground World has become extremely lively. Today is the day when the Underground World Elders' House selects the new generation of presidents. This selection competition is also the first time that the Elders' House has allowed masters who have not reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul to serve as elders of the Elders' House, and they also serve as the dean. This is also a sensational event in the entire Underground World.

What's more, all races know that after the selection competition, they will immediately vote on a decision to start a war against humans in China. Therefore, in order to seize that precious quota, all races have been fully prepared to show their skills. However, most races know that even if the newcomers of their own race fight hard, they will not be able to compete with the three major races. The idea of ​​most races is to strive for a good ranking and enhance their race's status in the underground world.

The place where the Dean’s Trials was held was in the main square in the center of the ninth floor of the Underground World.

In Jiang Chen's opinion, this big square looks more like the football field in his previous life, and it is a super-large football field.

The center of the square is paved with a flat open space composed of red crystals, which are about five miles long and wide. Around the open space is a circle of shaped stands from low to high.

There are so many seats in this stand, which can accommodate at least one million people.

The three powerful tribes of Dragon Man, Sable Man and Lizard Man have already arrived here early. They occupy the best three areas, and they look like they have the potential to make the world three times.

Between these three areas, there are representatives of other races in the underground world who came to watch and participate. They are basically elders of various races and rare up-and-comers.
